Movie Night!

 
Our Neighborhood is so awesome.  Honestly I couldn't ask for a better group of people.  On Saturday night Melissa hosted a movie night.  We watched the Polar Express under the stars complete with a hot chocolate bar and lots of good food.  I just got a few shots as I was enjoying it to much!
 


 
Love this face!
 
 
 Love this face too.  I think she had this expression through the whole movie!
 

 
Could he get any cuter!
 


Lily rides a bike!

 
On Thanksgiving morning Lily decided today was the day she would ride a bike!  Check her out!  Growing up again.  So proud of her and she is super proud of herself as she should be!
 
 
 
 
 
 


Thanksgiving!

 
 
Gobble Gobble Gobble!   We had a fabulous Thanksgiving Day at Aunt Lindsay and Uncle Adam's!  I loved all the decorations and detail.  The food was fantastic and the company even better.  Onto the pictures!

More November fun!

 
Daddy's home!  All is well with the girls world now that daddy is finally back from Nebraska.  We mostly hung out at home but we did take a day and go to the Midway museum!  It started with a train ride down the coast.  It was such a fun day. 
 
 





 
Love these three so much!
 

 
Walking through the puddles was Lily's favorite part!
 
 
This tree is so beautiful.  I just love it. 
 

 
The girls loved this cow bench.  I think we sat her for like 30 minutes while they ate ice cream and played!
 




November Happenings

 
 
We stayed home more this month than we usually do but we did manage to get in some fun activities.  We celebrated Koa's 1st birthday and so on the way to Santa Clarita we stopped in for some fun with Grandma and Nonno.  
 Daddy finally came home for Nebraska so that was probably what prompted us to stay home and enjoy being together!

Ella couldn't wait to get on the pony ride!
 
 
She is saying eww stinky! 
 

 
I couldn't get this one to look at the camera.
 


 
Chasing Peacocks!
 

 
The girls love animals.  They didn't get this from me.  They love to pet them and care for them.  I am just more of the fish in a bowl type of person. 
 





 
Not even close!
 
 
 Just about right!
 
 
Happy Birthday Koa!
 
 

 
This was one busy weekend that ended with a choir performance at Lily's school.  It was a hectic morning.  Lily had Sunday school at our church and then a performance with her school choir at their church and no Mike.  Church was fine but when we got to her school she had a meltdown and didn't want to wear ( in her words) her ugly choir shirt.  I made the mistake of letting her wear a new pink snowflake outfit and tutu to church and so she didn't want to put on her blue choir shirt.  I should also mention that the children in the choir were allowed to pick either a blue or pink choir shirt and every girl chose pink except for Lily.  My little non conformist!  I got terrible shots because Lily was directly behind the choir director and I of course sat on the wrong side.  Thank goodness for Aunt Lindsay who always come through with good pictures and video too.
 





 
Here is a link to the video Lindsay took.  Lily takes out her hair in the middle of her performance.  You can see she is really into this.  ( not)
